Reviews

First of all, im going to use some strong language so please be advised. The food, fu**ing delicious.
To start we had the White truffle garlic bread, and Wild Shrimp Scampi.
The bread and easy 8/10 in my humble opinion, but the shrimp? Wooooof! Delicious! 9.9/10 and the only reason why is because there wasn’t more to enjoy.
For our drinks, I had the “hazy ipa” which was great and my Wife enjoyed the Pomegranate Mule, which she said was excellent.
She had 3 and I had 3 plus a version of “Green Tea Shot” which we love and was fantastic! For our dinner, I had the house specialty, my wife the chicken parmesan, and my kids the Shrimp Alfredo (off menu).
Everything was splendid.
Shrimp was fresh, chicken perfect and sauces were off the charts.
Lastly, our waiter.
Dear Thomas.
You were amazing, Sir.
Very polite, very knowledgeable, extremely helpful, and top of the line in service.
Funny enough we were deciding between this and Cheesecake Factory, and we’re absolutely delighted we chose this.
Continue this amazing service Thomas, and thanks for the incredible food North Italia.
We are visiting from Phoenix and glad we ate here, looking forward to coming back.

Hi Ruta, thank you for your review.
We're glad you enjoyed our great food, service, and pleasant atmosphere, and we look forward to your next visit.

I had a great experience at North Italia in San Diego.
I ordered the spicy rigatoni vodka and the margherita pizza, both of which were delicious.
The service provided by our waiter was excellent.
I would highly recommend this restaurant and I’m looking forward to coming back in the future.
